While not exactly the famous annual '24 Hours at Saginaw' railfan event, Jerry Nunn of Fort Worth and I had a mini "3 hours and 2 minutes at Saginaw" photo event on Wednesday July 30, 2014. Nobody gave presentations, video shows, or anything, but in those 3 hours and 2 minutes, we saw 5 trains. Here's my photos. Updated to add more detail from Jeremy from Temple, Texas.




The Saginaw Chamber of Commerce in the restored depot, 1:20 p.m.


BNSF ex-Santa Fe warbonnet 239, 2:24 p.m. From Jeremy of Temple, Texas: "The 1st picture with BNSF 239 leading is the regular tagonite (can't spell)  train to Eagle Pass from Minnesota. It doesn't come through Temple everyday but is a special treat when you catch it. There is a steel mill in Mexico that receives the train."
